Okay, basic question for you experts. I''m writing a game in Delphi6 with DELPHIX. I want to use DXSOUND to play my .WAV files for sound effects but I would like to play a .MID in the background for music. What exactly is the correct way to play a MID? Delphi 6 comes with a MEDIA player type component, should I use that and hide it on my form? (Sorry if I sound like an idiot) Thanks. Matt

DelphiX doesn''t have support for MIDI fles, though DirectX does using the DirectMusic api. There''s an article on GameDev here, although it''s in C++.
